    LochesOur first stop is in Loches, a lesser-known but captivating medieval town.
    We stay Camping Le Citidelle, we stay three nights, a really nice site within easy walking access to all the main sights.

    Amboise
    It’s just a 45 minute drive from Loches to Amboise through scenic countryside roads.
    We stayed three nights at the Camping de l’Île d’Or, a spacious and well-equipped campsite located on an island in the Loire River with a postcard-perfect view of the château.

    Chinon
    About an hours drive southwest to Chinon, nestled along the Vienne River.

      'It is really chucking it down now'………………….As a long time watcher of the BBC'S 'Time Team' archaeologial show, i've heard this exact phrase said before!!

      Another excellent vlog. The dates and destination details are really appreciated and set you above other channels. There is nothing more annoying than not knowing where and when travels are happening.

      Hi Sue and Rod, love your vlogs. So informative with no nonsense. No click bait. Been guessing what you did for work before retiring. I think history teacher. Hubby thinks you owned your own business as very fluent with computer displays and graphics

      We love your videos too (and certainly share your love of France)… so much so, we have been inspired to buy a camper van! Can’t wait to pick it up and start our adventures! Enjoy the rest of your current trip!😊

      Just found your channel. We did the Loire between 1998 and 2009 two weeks at a time during the summer camping. I became a professional gardener so summer holidays were impossible. But now we're retired with a campervan and plan to visit next summer. It's lovely to see a couple of places we've been before and filmed/narrated brilliantly.
